FabricatedChatReports VS gaslight

You sure about that?

https://github.com/fxmorin/FabricatedChatReports (TL;DR: context is forgeable)

Some resources regarding the topic: https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-253888 https://github.com/nodusclient/gaslight https://github.com/fxmorin/FabricatedChatReports

There have been many exploits in the past where fake reports could be generated, potentially more that are privately reported. Mojang has already delayed the release of 1.19.1 multiple times to get the system perfect. From the sound of it, there's a huge rework in place for 1.19.1 pre-release 5 which hopefully fixes the exploits for once and for all, but we won't really know until security researches poke at it when it's released.

Don't forget this one too: https://github.com/fxmorin/FabricatedChatReports

The same moderation tools that can be abused to frame someone very easily are a very bad idea. Servers moderate themselves just fine

you are in the full capability to report someone for saying that though, because others could’ve found it violent and extreme. plus it’s not only yelling that’s bad, but you can be reported for a lot of confusing situations, such as: killing yourself to go back home with keep inventory on can be reported for suicidal actions, greifing someone’s base can be seen as bullying, and there will be tons of faulty reports to the point where the chat reporting won’t even serve a purpose of good, but a purpose of a weapon. there are even mods that can alter and utilize be inconsistencies of chat reporting (https://github.com/nodusclient/gaslight) that will end up making mojang remove mods entirely to fix their stupid problematic update.

It can still be abused.

Minecraft players when this

Release 1.19.1 has several player security issues that allow players to falsify chat reports via gaslight, plus the general community either will reluctantly or outright will not update (which they rightfully should not). I highly encourage not updating until mojang either removes or modifies chat reporting to be more in favor of server admins.

chat reporting definitely needs to exist but its clearly not ready in its current place. there are all ready three chat reporting mods that mess with it and can abuse it. 1 2 3. so heres my suggestion: make it like the recent combat updates but a lot more frequent. make it so that every week or two theres a chat reporting snapshot where players can test and report bugs and exploits with it so it can be the best system it possibly can. this makes players more comfortable with it, fixes bugs, and just overall makes it better if they listen to constructive feedback. once its in a good state they will just release it in whatever the next version is, whether that be 1.20, 1.20.1 or even 1.21.
